Modern Education: Seeing the Value in Idleness | Stillness as a Precursor to Creativity & Ingenuity
from Support, Protect, Empower - The Project Purpose Podcast · host Rachelle Innocent
#Education #Idleness #Creativity Hello Everyone! Welcome to our first segment on Education, this week 😊 In today's discussion, we're talking about the miseducation around idleness. Many of us equate being idle as synonymous to being lazy. In a society where much of performance is measured by productivity and output, it makes sense that many of us feel guilty or uncomfortable with having nothing to do. All to say, to tap into your creativity and ingenuity, this requires moments of stillness and quiet reflection. Many people don't see themselves as creative, simply because their schedules have not allowed them the (mental) space to create. Join the conversation as we provide the business case for idleness, and discuss how carving in times for silence, quiet and stillness has more value than we recognize. #Education #CriticalThinking #Idleness #Stillness #Quiet #Reflection #Creativity #Ingenuity #ReEducation #MisEducation #Bestill Do you have any questions regarding our resilience-building, parent-child workshops?
